Julianna (No Hollywood!)

Lyrics:

Julianna called me late last night
Said the family had had a fight
She said she'd like to meet with me if I could
Met her over by the ice cream shop
watched the tears that she had cried nonstop
she said she planned to book from home if she could
Said she had real plans if she could make it...
to Ho-lly-wood

Asked if I could spare some funds

to help finance her get-a-way run
Said she'd pay me back and promised it was the truth
Cried once more outside the ticket booth
She said she'd pay me back when her plans
had all panned out
I wished her luck on her plans
for Hol-ly-wood

All night Julianna's stereo played on
By Saturday noon they all found she had gone
No clothes, no robes, she was gone for good
But still no call... from out in
Hol-ly-wood

2 months later, the message came
Julianna finally reached her fame
an overdose from a pimp in Hollywood

The words I heard had scared me half to death
I couldn't move, I couldn't catch my breath
the secret we shared haunted like it should
Just another hard luck story...from out in
Hol-ly-wood

Julianna was buried today
A stormy black rainy Saturday
All her friends were there
but her family didn't show
She might as well have stayed
out in Hollywood

I never confessed just what I'd known
I never wanted my cover blown
But I knew I'd never let this happen again

Cyndi Dawson called me late last night
said that she had had it with her life
Said she could tell me this because she knew we were OK
Asked if I could spare some funds
to help finanace her get away run
Said she's pay me back and promised it was the truth
Talked her home with a story that I knew
A heartfelt eulogy to girl, who too
Ended up with tears at that same booth
But still no call from out in
Hol-ly-wood

Cyndi Dawson had called again last night
Said that everything had worked out right
She talked it over and worked it out OK
Made me very happy on this sunny Saturday
Made me happy to know NO HOLLYWOOD!
